Correction: Rar produced 212 Mb on OO 2.0.2 sources, but using "force text

Then try one of the last compressors as PAQ8, your OO 2.0.2
sources will take days in compress, but i think you can get 140-150
MB or even less and is opensource too. But it isn't used out of
First thing: I did neither think or believe, I just tested.
To save your time, you should limit your tests to:
1. Command-line tools.
Creation of installs is automated.
GUI tools cannot be used in automated builds.
2. Completely cross-platform.
For obvious reasons.
3. Completely Open source.
For obvious reasons.
4. Compress time should be definitely less than 10 minutes.
Sometimes we do 4-5 builds one after the other.
We simply cannot afford to wait 2 hours, and we never know
whether the next build will be the final one.
Any solution that falls outside of this is not acceptable in advance.
